Funds Raised through Birdies for Charity 2011 & 2012 were used to purchase new student & teacher desks at the Blessings Lighthouse School in Misisi Compound, located in Lusaka, Zambia!
Bishop Misika shares these words:
"God is great, and this can only be His doing! I could not believe my
eyes as the school desks started arriving from the workshop! I recall
how much 'pleading' I received from school management over desks, as the
pupils were using church benches and chairs, and over time these
starting breaking. The Blessing Lighthouse School management and the
church leadership remain very grateful to God for all the donors for
this timely donation. We are proud that this School stands out to be
the only school out here providing orphaned and vulnerable children with
a conducive learning environment."
